That afternoon, the interrogation room at Chong City Police Station.
Sitting across from Li Qiao were two police officers with stern faces, and the wall behind bore the four characters: "Leniency to those who confess."
They were flipping through the case records in their hands when one of them looked up, "You are now a suspect involved in the case. If you don't cooperate with our investigation, you're only making things harder for yourself."
"I do not admit to conducting human experimentation. Is that what you call not cooperating?"
Li Qiao rested her forehead on her fingertips and slowly retorted, which left the officer facing her momentarily speechless.
The officer tapped the table with his knuckles, "Get the situation straight, now we have both testimonial and material evidence. You think we have no way to deal with you just because you won't admit it?"
Li Qiao rubbed her forehead, leaned on the armrest, and looked up at the officer, "Can I see a lawyer?"
